Author Wen tingjun? the Tang Dynasty
A foot of crimson is better than dust, and the old is not as good as the new.
Acacia peach pit is hateful, and Xu Yuanlai has no one else.
A candle at the bottom of a well keeps Lang Changxing from going.
Linglong dice Anhoudou, what do you know about bone acacia?
Second, translation.
A long dark red dress was covered with light yellow for a long time. Since ancient times, old things are not as pleasing as new things. You and I should be as steadfast as acacia walnuts, but I didn't expect someone else in your heart, which made me hate you after all.
Light a lamp at the bottom of the well. I sincerely tell you that I can play long chess with you, but I won't play Go with you. The red dot on the exquisitely made dice, like the most lovesick red bean, goes deep into the bone marrow and expresses my deep love for you, you know?

These two poems are written to satirize the new and hate the old. Write "Red beans in linglong dice, do you know how much you miss them?" And use dice to show your love for them. There is neither rich rhetoric nor a little powder. Its conception is novel and unique, which is refreshing in many love poems.
The extensive use of homophonic puns makes poetry unique and unique. When people express their feelings of love, they try to avoid being straightforward and obscure (of course, it is not obscure), but the use of puns can make people appreciate the infinite meaning of puns through their literal meanings and those "other words" with the same sound or near sound.
These homophonic words have profound meanings and cannot be read silently. It contains the poet's artificial specific meaning and emotional color, which can make the language more subtle, euphemistic and interesting in expression; Used to express love, it is simple and profound, and more infectious.
